Below is a list of books that I have in my collection. Although I have not read each one cover to cover, I do find them to be interesting and useful tools to refer to when I have questions about Alzheimer's Disease or the brain in general. I know that they will be most beneficial to me in my future studies in graduate school and beyond.
